Graco Twisting Travel Potty

This little potty is the BEST! I was debating between this and the Potette Plus and I am so happy that I went with this one. The Potette is very flimsy and wobbly, even when the legs are locked. It is also very low to the ground. The Graco potty is very sturdy and adjusts to a taller height so that my 2.5 year old sits comfortably. I do have to position him a little toward the big to keep the pee in but it's no big deal. My son is in the 85% for height and I see him using this for quite a while. It is so easy to pop him in the back of my small SUV and go instead of using a gross public toilet. Much quicker too until they really learn how to hold it. I just used it on a 3 day hiking/climbing trip as well. It folded down small enough to fit into my 50 liter pack (along with tons of other stuff) and my son was happy about using it. It can come untwisted easily but is very easy to get back on. I just leave it twisted up in the car. It probably will not fit into your diaper bag though. It came with liners but I didn't like them. I took the advice of another reviewer and ordered the Potette Plus refills when I ordered it and they work great! They fit perfectly, have an absorbent cute turtle pad in them and have little handles that are easy to tie. I would only use a grocery bag in a pinch though. Those things always have tiny holes in them and I would rather not have pee all over the car lol. $10 for 30 seems reasonable to me. This is seriously one of the best mom purchases (along with the liners) that I have made.

Sturdy construction, will not tip over when sitting but biggest drawback for a boy is to center his wee wee when sitting to pee. No splash guard and the seat ring is quite thin. When taking it on a vacay, it takes up quite a bit of space in the luggage bag.

I wanted a potty that could be used at home (needed a second one to have one on each floor of our home) or on the go (my kid is scared of public toilets) so I looked for one that could use but did not require bags. This was the only one I could find. When I first put my almost 3yo 34 lb son onit I thought it was way too small and would have to return it, but then he pooped in it right away so I guess we are committed now. Then he fell over backwards because the base is so small. Now he sits still on it and I'm using it as our upstairs lesser used potty. I'vebrought it out with us but have not yet used it while out.pro:small enough for my kid-stuff travel backpackcan use produce-sized plastic bags when on the gobags go under the flip-up seat so kid doesn't have to sit on crinkly bagcan use without bags at homehight is slightly adjustableeasy to cleaneasy to carry one-handedkind of cutecon:seat is round and narrow, not particularly comfortable for sitting on for very longbase is small and not very stable for a wiggly kid but after tipping over backwards once my son learned to sit stillno splash guard and small seat means manual aiming is required for boys. put this thing on a towel to protect carpet.

I understand the idea of this potty is to be small and easy for on the go emergencies, but the rim is so narrow my daughter hated it. I'll be sending it back.

The perfect travel potty, whether you're doing Elimination Communication or just need a potty-on-the-go.I needed a potty on the go and had been searching my options. I like a lot of things about the Graco Twisting Travel Potty System.- Small Footprint. It will fit in your car. You can tuck it under your seat or in your trunk. It's not bulky like carrying around a stand alone potty.- Adjustable Height. The height adjustment is nice as they grow. it twists up and down to make it taller or shorter in height.- Portable. It's easy to grab and take with you where ever you're going. Lets be honest. Potty training isn't easy and sometimes when kids need to go they mean NOW. this is perfect for the side of the road, behind the store, wherever you gotta stop situation. I especially found it useful when traveling and needing to pull over.- Lift up Lid. The lift up lid allows you to put a bag inside the potty. it does come with some bags to start you off, as well. The bag is great for disposal of the waste, especially poop. I do not find it to be as useful for urine, so I do not use bags for pee only situations. Instead I just allow them to pee and then I find a place to dump it out. The bag is excellent for poop because it's easy to toss out with no need to clean. You can then toss it back in your car and be on your merry way.I used this last summer at the beach with my twins. They did great using the potty and we shared with our friends joining us as well. It became a very convenient tool to have at our disposal between all the moms. We did not have to escort our kids to far away bathrooms in hopes they would make it. We were able to stay with our belongings and the kids were able to go potty as needed.

We have been using this for about 6 months now. Works great! Folds down very small for transport. Even used it in the bathroom on an airplane! Though it is a bit tricky! Fits down in a little bag that we pack with extra diapers, wipes and potty bags, so we don't always have to take the whole diaper bag in the restroom with us. We even use a little puppy training pad beneath it when using it in the car, just in case there are any accidents, but so far we've had none. We use regular, cheap, gallon size, zip food storage bags with this, these do not fit very well, but since they go under the rim, we've had no problem with them. We just use it as a regular potty without the bag when staying in hotels and dump into toilet and wipe out as with a regular potty seat. It can unscrew if you turn it too far, but have just learned that when you see 3 lines on the white part that twists up, that's where we stop, so we don't have a problem with having it come apart. Have had no problems with a boy using it as we make sure he is situated properly on the seat
